DenisOhDenis Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 I don't doubt what Archie said but it wouldn't have been a bad thing if he had been primed to go on to say "...and we are advised that it should all be sorted within the next X weeks/months." A little bit of expectation management for your customer-base goes a long way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather he said he didn't know if he actually didn't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the full post from P&B: "Don't shoot the messenger if this doesn't happen, but got told after the match yesterday, from a good source, that the club are hopeful that the Coulibaly situation MIGHT be resolved next week and if so, he will be in the squad for the East Fife game. Time will tell, but if we get clearance what a gigantic boost that will be!" 'Hopeful' and 'might' are the key words, not 'confident'. Would be great if it happens.

Barney Rubble Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Would be great if clearance is delivered on this one. But hopeful and might don't suggest it will be happening anytime soon. It would be interesting to know what due diligence the club did before announcing this 'signing' in the first place.

BowenBoys Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 'Hopeful that it might' is quite a negative forecast. Did they mean 'hopeful that it will'? No, that doesn't get us any closer either, we all hope it will. Perhaps the source meant 'it might'. Well, we know that already. Not sure we're any further forward with this. One thing's for sure, we all hope Semantics Coulibaly will play for the Jags soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caramaca Posted September 6, 2018 Report Share Posted September 6, 2018 Ok, how long do we wait for him to be available for selection while we are a squad man down. I understand that he is probably better than we could normally sign but I think max I more month then cut him loose and get someone who can play.

Garscube Road End Posted September 6, 2018 Report Share Posted September 6, 2018 This looks as if it is going to be far too complicated to sort out. Unless the club pay the 1.4 euros. Hahahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I'm intrigued to know who you think we could possibly get from the list of free agents that won't have secured employment, 5 weeks after the window has shut.

We actually have a man more in the squad than was originally planned so if things don't work out we still have numbers. The club have taken a punt on Coulibaly and Quitongo. I think it is worth the risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t actually have a list do you ?, my original question was about how long we wait not what’s available now . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
